My question involves criminal law for the state of: New York.
Last year, I was asked to meet with my company's district manager (I worked in a retail store). Upon meeting with him, he made me sign a lot of paperwork saying this was a confidential meeting that was between him, myself, and a loss prevention officer who was on the phone. As an employee, I had stolen around $200 worth of company goods and funneled it into monetary gift cards. I confessed and subsequently signed a few papers with a written confession as well as promissory note to pay the restitution of the same amount. Afterwards, I asked the DM if this was confidential and private and if it would be on my record and she said no as long as I paid the restitution. A few weeks later, I received a letter from a law office regarding the restitution as well as several phone calls from them. I eventually paid the restitution in full about a month or two later.
I have held a seasonal position since then for which I was hired on the spot, therefore no such background check was conducted. I am currently trying to obtain a position at a financial institution where I received notice that they would be conducting a background check. My question is, will this incident show up during the background check/consumer report?
I would like to add that the DM never told my own store manager the reason for my being fired, just that I WAS terminated for reasons withheld.
